Brutal police statement of British man’s death by stabbing in Portugal

The police in Portugal said that a British engineer stabbed and killed another person at a festival. After being arrested, the engineer did something disrespectful to the person’s body.

A 27-year-old man named Josh James Menkens was sent to prison yesterday after being asked about the death of a 37-year-old British man. The British man died after a music event organized by Menkens at a distant community in Portugal.

The detectives did not say anything about the investigation after other British people told them about the very horrible crime.

However, in a very detailed statement last night, they explained how Menkens, who is from Welwyn Garden City in Hertfordshire, is accused of hiding his victim’s body after brutally attacking him in a forest near the location of the four-day festival known as the Mad Hatters’ Tea Party.

At first, it was believed that the person died while playing a dangerous game called Blue Whale. However, the investigators later confirmed that this was not the cause of death.

The alarm was raised on Sunday morning when some people from England went to a police station in a town called Figueiró dos Vinhos in Portugal.

The police say that they have arrested a man in the town of Soalheira. He is accused of killing someone and disrespecting a dead body. The police had help from the Pedrogao Grande police force.

The person who was accused of a crime is from another country and they planned a party on a remote piece of land. They took the person who was harmed to a forest area that was far away from other people. They had a knife and used it to harm the person with very strong force, stabbing them in many different areas of the body, which led to their death.

After the suspect killed someone, they hid the body by using branches from trees and clothes.
Here is a simplified version of the text: The story goes on: ‘The person who was harmed was a man from another country who was 37 years old. He had come to Portugal to take part in the activity and it seems that he didn’t know the person being accused personally.

We don’t know why the crimes were committed yet, but it doesn’t seem like they have anything to do with games or online challenges.

The person who is 27 years old was at his first meeting with the judge where they decided to keep him in jail while they investigate.

The place where the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party happened is owned by Xavier Hancock, who went to public school, and his partner Arantxa Atauri from Spain.

There is no evidence that the couple had anything to do with the stabbing that happened early Sunday morning.

Earlier this week, Mr. Hancock mentioned that since this investigation is still ongoing, he will only respond to questions from the authorities whom we are working closely with.

‘If they show the proof, I might share the story. ’

A promotional advertisement for the festival said it would be a fun event with good music and friendly people. It asked people to be nice to themselves, each other, and the environment.

Tickets cost €50 (£43) and included four nights of camping at the event. However, guests were also given the choice to upgrade their accommodation to luxurious camping options called ‘glamping’, which could cost up to £120.

Investigators found a knife next to the dead body of the 37-year-old person. The body and the knife were left in a small open area in the forest.

There might have been an examination done on Monday in the city of Coimbra, but the findings have not been shared with the public.

A person who knew Menkens talked about how surprised he was when Menkens got arrested.

The person who owns a nature-based vacation place where the British person stayed to relax from their busy job said: “He stayed here for a week and afterwards we had a casual business relationship, where we tried to help each other find small independent work opportunities. ”

‘We were aware that he was from the UK and had a very hectic schedule, working 50 to 60 hours a week. He needed to take some time off and unwind. ‘

He said, “When I met him three years ago, I thought he was a really good guy in his mid-twenties. ”

We got along well, he liked our daughter and the animals on the farm, and he had a great time here.

‘He was a little man with a large smile, and he didn’t give off any signs of aggression. ‘
Josh’s dad, Troy, talked to Mail Online yesterday and said: ‘I got a surprise call from him late Sunday night. ‘

My son was speaking very fast and confusingly, talking nonstop and saying things to me. I was trying to stay relaxed and figure out where he was being kept and how I could go there.

The businessman from Australia said, “When I received a call, I was surprised and gathered my thoughts. I asked, ‘Where are you. Which police station. ‘” Then, I booked a flight and took a taxi there the following morning.

I didn’t know a lot about the festival. I knew he was coming for a festival but didn’t know any specific information about it. I wasn’t worried because he has never done anything to make me worried.
